Don't Judge Me

- I am really looking forward to being in bed by 9 tonight so I can eat some Muddy Buddies while watching Dance Moms.

- Lately when I should be putting Henry to sleep, instead I get him all riled up. He gives me kisses and then giggles and it totally makes my night.

- My mood is partially dictated by how much breastmilk I have pumped that day. It's weird.

- Last week when I stayed home sick from work, Henry still went to daycare. And then everyone still asked, "What are you doing with Henry today?" I didn't feel guilty for sending him away from his sick mother to play with his friends at a place I pay for regardless of whether or not he is there. Maybe I'm heartless. Or maybe I found one of like 2 good things about being a working mom.

- Henry has started biting while nursing. And when I recoil in pain, he laughs. It's cute and super painful all at the same time. I'm not going to lie... some days the calorie burn is about all that keeps me breastfeeding.

{Working on his biting skills}

- I really don't care for most country music, but I own a good majority of the Nashville singles.

- I've decided I'm not going to stress about sleep training Henry. He fights going to sleep like it is his JOB and I kind of think that is just his personality. He is doing a better job of STAYING asleep and putting himself to sleep in the middle of the night. And frankly, I like the cuddle time we get at night rocking. My mommy instincts are pretty strong about this one.

When Aislynn used to bit me, I would give her a firm no...and then she would cry and go back to nursing lol. And DO NOT feel guilty for sending your babe to daycare when sick...YOU'RE SICK AND NEED REST! Besides it's what I dream about doing everytime I get sick lol.
